A device for temporary attachment of a golf glove when not in use, wherein the golf glove is of the type comprising a hook-and-loop closure having a first male closure section and a first female closure section selectively matable with and separable from the first male closure section for closing and opening the closure, the device comprising:
- A) a card having opposed outwardly facing side surfaces,
- B) a second male hook-and-loop closure section affixed to one side surface of the card for mating engagement with the first female closure section of the golf glove,
- C) a second female hook-and-loop closure section affixed to the opposite side surface of the card for mating engagement with the first male closure section of the golf glove, and
- D) means for attaching the card to a support for selective extension and retraction of the card relative to the support,
- wherein the golf glove may be securely attached to the card by engagement of the first male closure section of the glove with the second female closure section on the card and simultaneous engagement of the first female closure section of the glove with the second male closure section on the card to sandwich the card between the closure sections of the glove, thereby supporting the glove essentially without deformation.
